The session animated by Andr\u00e9 Schamin\u00e9e, Pello Sala and Fran\u00e7ois Richard took place in the renovated section of the Generalate while some repairs are still going on in other places such as the rooms above the dining room.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

A total of 21 participants came from various parts of the world to learn the so called \u2018Rudi\u2019 software program which contain the overall database system of the Society; names of confreres, their appointments and other useful data. This will hopefully enable the Secretaries to share data while centralising them in the Office of the Secretariat in Rome.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The second topic on the agenda, meaning the archives, was presented by Fran\u00e7ois Richard. The participants were given the chance to visit the documentations including old pictures and the first manuscripts signed by the Cardinal Lavigerie who is buried in the crypt under the main chapel.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

A Gule Wamkulu sculpture from Kungoni Centre of Culture and Art, Mua, Malawi is in full view in the archives rooms making sure that everything is well kept!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Many thanks for this first ever session which as long overdue. Everyone was pleased to learn something new and to enjoy good food.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t
